Manual Trigger Point Therapy

Stewart Wild, LMT, CNMT, CMTPT discusses the ins and outs of Manual Trigger Point Therapy (MTT), a unique form of hands-on bodywork that solves problems of pain and dysfunction of myofascial origin. MTT interventions begin with an assessment, followed by myofascial trigger point identification and deactivation, reinforcement techniques (including stretch and movement retraining), and a reassessment and home-care activity appropriate to the problem. This approach is informed by the latest medical research and case studies.
